    The Pennsylvania Council on Aging provides advice to the governor and the department. The council gives suggestions on how to plan and provide services for older adults. The council has 16 members, most of whom are 60 years old or older. The governor nominates these members, and the Senate has to approve them. There are also five more members who are chairs of regional councils across the state.
